Jenna Fernandez (Leg 3)

Hello! My name is Jenna Fernandez and I am a Junior at the University of Washington. I am majoring in Oceanography with an emphasis on Ocean Tech. My passion for the ocean stems from learning about new discoveries using technology that allow us to explore the mysteries of the deep. I am a student assistant with the OOI and the RSN Lab, and I have been helping prepare all of the instruments for this cruise. This is my first time out at sea, so I am excited to experience field work, witness Axial Seamount, and view the novel life forms first-hand.
